===============================================
An argument over sex turned ugly when a Florida woman grabbed her
rapping lover's dreadlocks and smashed him in the face with a tricycle,
police said.
Clinda Josaphat, 20, was doing her child's father's hair as he sat
spitting lyrics in Fort Pierce on Jan. 19 when the conversation turned
to their love life and unborn child, reports TCPalm.com.
The man, who's not been named, revealed he was "getting it elsewhere" because Josaphat wasn't being intimate with him.
Josaphat replied that she couldn't have sex on doctor's orders.
The amateur lyricist said that he didn't want to be in her life, but did want to be in his child's.
It's unclear whether he was talking about an existing infant or the future arrival.
Josaphat allegedly "kept twisting his dreads tighter and tighter," according to an arrest affidavit.
She is then accused of biting him and hitting him with a tricycle.
A police report revealed that her victim had "welts on his head from the hair pulling" and "a bite mark on the back."
Josaphat was arrested on a battery charge.http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=e07_1424744327ExileOnMainStreet Florida woman grabs rapper's <span class="highlight">dreadlocks</span>, hits him in face with tricycleJosaphat, LOLGirl scout shot by BLACKS while selling cookies.Wed, 04 Feb 2015 16:57:10 -0500http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=2f1_1423086878

The incident happened in a neighborhood near North Michigan and Westlane roads.
Neighbors say they saw two suspects - one wearing a hooded sweatshirt and the second with dreadlocks - pull up to the side of the Retreat Cooperative apartment complex in a green or blue Expedition. Neighbors described a hand with a glove reach out of the vehicle.
After the Expedition pulled up, neighbors say shots were heard. Police say the 9-year-old girl started running and was hit in the calf. She was transported to Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health in stable condition.
According to the child's family, she was selling Girl Scout cookies when she was shot.
Investigators went door to door asking people if they heard or saw anything. Around 6:30 p.m., no one was in custody.http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=2f1_1423086878foghorn_leghornGirl scout shot by BLACKS while selling cookies.obama's sons kill girl scoutAngry Dad Chops Off Daughter's Boyfriend's <span class="highlight">Dreadlocks</span> After He Found Teens Sneaking AroundThu, 29 Jan 2015 08:48:05 -0500http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=42a_1422538952
ZombieMageDon't mess with Dad!!
A Pennsylvania father faces charges of aggravated assault, terroristic threats and other offenses after he attacked his daughter's boyfriend, WPVI reports.
Reginald Hardy of West Reading apologized for his actions, saying that he "literally" saw red when he caught the two teens sneaking around on Friday night.
"That might have been the maddest I ever got," the 38-year-old father told WFMZ.
According to court documents, Hardy punched the 19-year-old boy in the face, then dragged him to the kitchen where he cut his dreadlocks off. Police say the father also threatened to shoot the boy in the back, according to the Associated Press.
"We got into a little scuffle," Hardy told WFMZ. "I'm a father and I'm looking out for my daughter. That's it."
The dad admits that he was wrong, but says that he deserves an apology too.
"He knows he shouldn't have been there," said Hardy.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Jan. 12.http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=42a_1422538952ZombieMageAngry Dad Chops Off Daughter's Boyfriend's <span class="highlight">Dreadlocks</span> After He Found Teens Sneaking AroundAngry Dad, Chops Off , Dreadlocks, Teens, Sneaking Around, daughter, bf,Portland man accused of choking girlfriend w/ his <span class="highlight">dreadlocks</span>Tue, 08 Jan 2013 12:24:02 -0500http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=a28_1357665712

ZimmerDownThe U.S. Army's new ban on many types of ethnic hairstyles has African-American women who wear their coifs in dreadlocks, braids and cornrows in a twist.
The Army's regulations stipulate such guidance as hair "must be of uniform dimension, small in diameter (approximately 1/4 inch), show no more than 1/8 (inch) of the scalp between the braids."
Dreadlocks "against the scalp or free-hanging" are banned. "Unkempt" or "matted" braids and cornrows are also considered dreadlocks and "are not authorized," according to the regulations that were updated this month.
It's that type of language, words like "unkempt" and "matted," that read to some African Americans, as code for racial bias.
"These new changes are racially biased and the lack of regard for ethnic hair is apparent," Sgt. Jasmine Jacobs of the Georgia National Guard wrote in a White House petition she started in late March asking the Obama administration to reconsider the policy.
Currently, the petition has more than 13,000 signatures.
"We feel let down," Jacobs told the Army Times. "I think, at the end of the day, a lot of people don't understand the complexities of natural hair. A lot of people, instead of educating themselves, they think dreadlocks and they think Bob Marley, or they see women with really big Afros and they think that's the only thing we can do with our hair."
The updates in appearance standards were crafted, in part, with the help of African-American female soldiers and are intended to clarify the professional look of soldiers, said Troy Rolan, an Army spokesman.
Previous regulations did not specifically address things such as braid widths or numbers, or the definition of twist styles.
"Many hairstyles are acceptable, as long as they are neat and conservative," Rolan said, noting the Army has banned dreadlocks since 2005.
If soldiers aren't happy, they can go through a formal process to request changes to the hairstyle regulations, the Army said.
"We encourage soldiers to make use of this process by sending recommendations and examples of hairstyles which could present professional appearances and conform to the regulation," Rolan said.
The rules' conciseness isn't the problem, say some African-American women and black studies scholars.
The problem, they say, is a perception that ethnic hair that is "natural" or not straightened with heat or chemicals is somehow unruly, unkempt and must be carefully regulated to fit within white cultural norms.
Black female soldiers say new grooming reg is 'racially biased'
"In a broad sense, it's just another example of U.S. institutions policing black style," said Mark Anthony Neal, an African-American studies professor at Duke University. "And it's not that there aren't other examples of such policing among other racial and ethnic groups. But, given the fraught relationship between black identity and culture and what some Americans might perceive as 'normal,' it strikes a particularly dissonant chord among some blacks."
Mandating what should be done with black hair is a particularly sensitive matter.
During slavery and for generations after, hair texture, along with skin complexion, was used to classify which slaves were more valuable, given jobs in the master's house rather than the field, and - by default - deemed beautiful.
Straighter hair, lighter skin and features that looked white were considered preferred traits, African-American scholars noted.
Those values were internalized and perpetuated within the black community for years in a way that was particularly damaging to the self-esteem of black women, African American scholars said.
"The gender dynamic here is also important; hair is so tied to the idea of black womanhood and self-esteem," Neal said. "There have been many stories, for example, of the extra scrutiny black women with locs or dreads face going through airport security. The Army's ban is just another knock from the dominant society that somehow black women are out of step with the so-called status quo."
Black pride and natural hair movements have emphasized that all hair types and the rainbow of skin hues are all beautiful.
However, the Army's regulations, some natural hair advocates and African American scholars fear, might suggest to black soldiers that their tresses must be straightened or closely cropped in order to fit in and be valued.
Army: Female focus group helped determine new hair rules
That type of pressure is "both unfair and racially biased," said Imani Perry, an African-American studies professor at Princeton University.
"While it is reasonable for the military to expect some degree of conformity and neatness in hairstyles, those expectations ought to take into account the variety of natural hair textures people have," Perry said. "For many African-American women who have tightly curled, coily or kinky hair, cornrows braids and locs are styles that allow for ease of close to the head grooming. Hence, banning those hairstyles puts black female soldiers in a difficult bind with respect to the requirement."
That type of pressure is "both unfair and racially biased," Perry said adding that the Army conformity isn't absolute because female soldiers are allowed to wear their hair long.
"Likewise, consideration ought to be made for different textures of hair," Perry said. "Otherwise, a burden is placed disproportionately upon some soldiers due to an immutable characteristic, natural hair texture that is tied to race."

"The main peril of having long hair in the NFL is that it's completely legal for opposing players to tackle players with the manes that flow from beneath the helmet. And though the hair-tackle has happened to guys like Troy Polamalu and Ricky Williams, it's hard to remember a player ever having his hair ripped out of his scalp by a defender. Andre Ellington was on the wrong side of history on Sunday."

beck64Savannah-Chatham County,
Police released surveillance video of one of a string of Motel robberies.
In this incident,at a Gateway Inn on Abercorn Street on Dec. 2 clerk Amos Haywood told police he was finishing his shift when the gunman entered the hotel and jumped the counter, wielding a semi-automatic handgun and demanding money.
Haywood, 70, tried to walk to the back office, but the suspect grabbed his shirt and instructed him to open the register, according to a police report.
Haywood complied, and the gunman stole about $200 before fleeing to a nearby wooded area on foot.
A similar chain of events occurred in a Wednesday evening robbery at the Econo Lodge on Abercorn Street.
The suspect robbed hotel clerk Sarah Scardina at gunpoint and escaped with an undisclosed amount of cash. He is also wanted in connection with the November armed robberies of a Suburban Lodge on Abercorn and a Residence Inn on White Bluff Road.
The suspect is described by metro police as about 6 feet 3 inches tall, with a slender build and long dreadlocks.http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=887_1197027454beck64Gunman jumps the counter during a Gateway Inn Motel robberygunman,gun,counter,jump,robbery,motel,dreadlocks,caught,tape,security,surveillance,police,copsTexas Adverse Possession (Squatter Shenanigans) UpdateMon, 10 Dec 2012 22:02:20 -0500http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d17_1355193969
TTTorosaurusI remember there were some videos and outrage on LL when the wave of frivolous adverse possession cases swept across Texas starting last year. Well, now it seems one of the most infamous of those cases has come to an end in a criminal prosecution (this is a month late, but no one else posted it). I'm not sure about the legal merits of such a prosecution, honestly, but it seems more than morally justified here given the circumstances. I do believe adverse possession is an important tenant of property law that must be preserved, but, with the wave of foreclosures still inundating the country and unscrupulous, predatory adverse possession filers on the rise, it seems current civil laws do need to be backstopped more robustly with clear criminal penalties for obvious abusers of the system.

EDIT: Some more background here : http://www.myfoxdfw.com/story/20086802/couple-accused-of-theft-in-texas-squatter-case
It seems like the case against Cooper was far stronger than I originally thought. The home was owned by a couple who were out of town for cancer treatment and it seems Cooper sold over $200,000 of their furniture. In light of that, I think his punishment was far too light, even if it would have been fair for the average squatter. I'm sure the homeowner's loses were covered by insurance, but, still, that amount of stuff deserves at least a few years in prison, no matter how deluded about the law the squatter actually was.
